java question: please read?

Write the definition of a method dashedLine , with one parameter, an int .

If the parameter is negative or zero, the method does nothing. Otherwise it prints a complete line terminated by a newline to standard output consisting of dashes (hyphens) with the parameter's value determining the number of dashes. The method returns nothing.

Here is what I wrote and is not working:

void dashedLine(int a){};
{
if (a>=0)
{
a=0;
}
if (a > '-' )
{
a= '-';
}
else
{

System.out.println( "a: " ='-');
}
return

Thanks for any help ...

Not only can you upload videos, but you can upload pictures and music, great way for any artist, director or photographer to get dicovered. My username on youtunes is "save_us.jao". I make stupid funny videos. Look for me there, and also look for me on YouTube.com, Rican Productionz.

How many of you actually research your questions beforehand?

Everyone must be getting sick of seeing the absolute dumbest questions in the computers section. "How can I download a mouse to click?"

"HOW DO I ADD VIDEO TO FACEBOOK!?!"

please, reserve questions to asking when you cannot find the answer AFTER research, it's a waste of everyone's time

I have recently had problems with my computer being redirected to thefinder.net and then to postery.net.?

This is a girlie type website. I am trying to go to the crochet site that I visit a lot for patterns. You can imagine how this bothers me. I know that something must have attached itself, perhaps via spyware or cookies, to my computer. Has anyone else had this problem (with thefinder.net or postery.net)? Can you help me get rid of this or give me direction on how to solve this issue? It is driving me buggy!!

Thank you so much,

Why is my computer slow?

Its mostly just slow when I try to visit any websites with pictures or video or any other media. the best example would be the homedepot website. I can never get it to load.

Would my computer run better if I bought more memory for it?

Her are my computer stats:

Manufacturer: eMachines
Model: T3638
Processor: Intel Celeron CPU 420 @ 1.60GHz
Memory (RAM): 1015MB
System Type: 32-Bit Operating System

I believe the Graphics card is: Intel Graphics Media Accelorator Driver

So does anyone know How I can make my computer run a bit better? I want to be able to play online games like WoW....more memory and a better graphics card maybe?

Why do my mouse and keyboard keep disconnecting?

When I am on my computer, every once in a while, my mouse and keyboard disconnect from my computer, and the actual computer starts to beep really loudly. Then I have to basically jiggle the connection of both until the beep stops and then I usually have to put my computer on stand by to fix the mouse. Any ideas? Thanks.

You Tubes, how do I make them and what camera do I need and :??

Can I rent a camera to do this, I am not only old but poor :)
At age 56, I just found a You Tube site and I LOVE THEM. I want to make some for my family at a distance, What do I need, and is there a site where I can learn how to upload or whatever the lingo is :) Remember, I am a retired elem school teacher and I taught you all how to read and write and math , so how about some step by step for a "former" teacher. God bless you for helping us "old on the puter ones" at least this one :) who loves it and is learning as fast as the learning curve of a 56 year old brain can work. Can you build a skateboard from a piece of wood and nails ??? I can :) tee hee

how to delete programs?

I want to delete Myspace im! I hate that $h!t. It allows pop-ups to come through no matter how many pop-up blockers I have, no virus protector can handle it, it slows down my computer, and freezes it up so bad I have to reboot it. I've deleted it using the control panel a number of times. But my hard-headed @$$ sister keeps putting it back on here. And so today when I went to control panel to remove it it didn't show up. And this computer costs to much to be torn up all because her inconsiderate, selfish, rotten @$$. And if this computer tears up on account of her behalf I swear to the God above I'm gonna swell her whole face wit my dayum fist.I'm very short tempered and hot-headed. Can please tell me a way to delete, an alternative to the control panel? Another thing is there a way I can block it so it can't be installed again?
